Sickness or Satire--You Decide?

Amy ships this worried email this morning: "This is why you don’t click on the next blog button… you find THIS Conservatives for American Values. Grrrrr!"

But I'm assuming it has to be a joke, mostly because if it's not, things are too scary for me to consider.

The clues?

The photos look like they're characters from bad computer games.

Even the biggest loser of a conservative wouldn't write, "I've been described as a prophet" unless he meant profit. (Don't go telling him about no "homophones," either, because they clearly have no truck for any "homo-" anything. Even homo sapien hints at Darwin, or even worse, Pete Shelley.)

I have to admire the craft it takes to write this doozy sentence: "As for Benedict XVI's stance on homosexuality, I applaud it with both hands." No sound of one hand clapping for these upstanding men.

They don't know the difference between "then" and "than" or between "women" and "woman," but that last slip might tell us more about their social lives than about their abilities with grammar.

As for "dutifly," well that's just like "Spanish fly," which no doubt works for these two.

And the there's these tell-tale parody lines: "...they must also legislate laws to protect those who react violently to these new gay laws. We really can't blame these people for lashing out, they were simply born violent, it's who they are." No real conservative would ask for more laws--after all, people should fight for themselves or end up weak and dependent on a large central government that shouldn't exist in the first place.
